Vivienne’s activism was without limit. The mission of the charity she founded toward the end of her life, (The Vivienne Foundation), captures the scope of her ambition: “to save the world halt climate change, stop war, defend human rights, and protest capitalism.”It was through the language of visual activism that Vivienne andI bonded: TheAmazonian wild rubber dress was one of a series of our collaborations, whichIncluded wearing a recycled plastic dress to the Oscars and handing out protest cards for climate refugees afterI performed a pagan dance for her London show. When we went together to an event with Queen ElizabethII, she offered me a paper crown to wear. Over the years, we discussed many topics, yetI don’t recall ever discussing fashion.

In theInterpretation fetishization even of punk, many may have missed that the visualImagery was largely a medium for communicating a deeper philosophical and political message, which was manifestIn many other guises throughout her lifetime. “Punk was just a phenomenon,” her friend and collaborator for more than 50 years Gene Krell tells meIn his thick Brooklyn accent. “The label changed, but the elements, theIngredients, the commitment remained.” She was anIndependent thinker who drank art, literature, and politics through one straw and blew bubbles ofIdeas, designs, and theoriesInto the world through another. “Life was so exaggerated for herIn the most wonderful way,” Gene recalls.

You recently returned from Paris Couture Week.I’m wonderingIf you saw a lot of balaclavas at the different fashion events you attended?Paris was unusually cold this season.I saw a lot of creative ways for people to keep their heads warm. Overwhelmingly, balaclavas were the method of choice, both on and off the runway. Every New York Fashion Week, certain designerItems emerge as the fashion crowd’s favorites. Last year, everyone was wearing the Prada logo tank tops and minimal strappy heels by The Row. This past week, however, dainty Manolos were eclipsed by one shoe destined to go viral: MSCHF’s big red boots, aptly named the Big Red Boot.If you’re unfamiliar with MSCHF, they’re the experimental fashion brand that loves using their product releases to make a statement (often controversial ones). They’ve released boots that resemble medical casts, Birkinstock sandals made out of Hermès Birkins, and even Satan sneakersIn collaboration with Lil Nas X that featured a drop of real bloodIn the soles. The label loves to push the boundaries of fashion and, moreImportantly, to make headlines. Their latest release which looks like something Mario from Super Mario would wear comes out today. They retail for $350, are made of TPU rubber and an EVAmid outsole, and take design cues from a video game. “CartoonishnessIs an abstraction that frees us from the constraints of reality,” the press release for the boots read. “If you kick someoneIn these boots, they go boing!”
